MAB Cell : Less heat production, high temperature uniformity. The cooling

efficiency is 3 times higher than the conventional lithium battery

MAB Pack : able to use “Free Cooling” (air cooling without refrigeration) design to

simplify cooling system and reduce pack cost

Higher Utility • 60% higher Space utility than Tesla Model3.

• 25% higher Weight utility than conventional

NCM battery pack

MAB Advantages

Base on concept of CTP, but far more than CTP.• CTP: simplify module system (reduce components and lower cost)

• MAB (Multi-Axis BiPolar+): simplify both module system & battery cell

composition (optimize cooling system and lower cost further)

• BiPolar+ : Instead of connecting cells in series and parallel with wires, it is

done by stacking internal electrode layers directly, create huge cells with

higher power and energy density but without wires

MAB Technology : Integration of “BiPolar+ & CTP”

2019 2020 2021

MAB Gen-01BiPolar+ & CTP DE-MODULIZATION 1.BiPolar+ Tech, internal series(vertical + horizontal) to

replace external series2. Volume utilization is 1.35 times of NCM battery pack(50% vs. 67%).

3. Weight utilization is 1.15 times of NCM battery pack (68% vs. 78%).

MAB Gen-02 (Air Cooling)BiPolar+ & CTP +OPTIMIZED MANUFACTURING PROCESS1.Simplify manufacturing process, enhance automatic capability2. Increase assembly efficiency3. Volume utilization is 1.46 times of NCM battery pack (50% vs. 73%)

4. Weight utilization is 1.21 times of MNC battery pack (68% vs. 82%)

MAB Gen-02 (Free Cooling)BiPolar+ & CTP + FREE COOLING1. Fast heat dissipation, better temperature uniformity2. Free cooling, evolution of cooling system3. Volume utilization is 1.56 times of MNC battery pack(50% vs. 78%)

4. Weight utilization is 1.25 times of MNC battery pack (68% vs. 85%)

MAB 01 MAB 02 MAB 02

Benefits from 3 unique advantages, MAB is suitable for free cooling design, which can significantly reduce

complexity of cooling system, increasing assembly efficiency

2. “BiPolar+ module ” has less temp. rise and small T.Experiments confirmed that the temp. of VDA355 module with LIB cells rises a lot and

T is huge when adopting free cooling design. However, MAB’s temp. rises only a little and

Temp. distribute evenly(small T):

a. Temp. rising:• Max. temp. of MAB is under 60°C even when environment temp. is above 40°C.

• Conventional LIB cell temp. rise to 60°C or more when environment temp. is above 20°C.

b. T of whole battery pack:• T of MAB is controlled within 6°C (1C charge) and 12°C (2C discharge) at 15~40°C environment.

• T of VDA with LIB is far above 6°C (1C charge) and 12°C (2C discharge) even environmental temp. is

controlled between 15~40°C.

“Temp. simulation analysis of Free cooling” experiments proved that :

• Free cooling system is workable for PLG Solid state MAB at 15~40°C environment.

• Free cooling system is not workable for LIB VDA355 (no matter at any environment, T is bottle neck)

1. “Solid state Lithium Ceramic Battery” dissipate heat fastHeat dissipation coefficient of PLG LCB is 3 TIMES HIGHER than any other LIB (includes X-Y-Z axis)

3. “MAB pack ”makes air cooling possible

Ultimate Packaging: MAB + Free Cooling

1.In same module configuration (VDA355), ProLogium has higher specific energy density.2.ProLogium modules achieve highest volumetric energy among all types of module.

Comparison between CTP & MAB

Same Purpose : to Simplify Modules

Simplify module design

Higher volume utility, less parts needed

Pack cost reduced significantly

Longer battery life

Remain high safety level even without module protection.

MAB battery tech with internal series& parallel design simplifies mechanical

parts of external series

Stack series resistance is much lower than the external series, results in less

heat production, better heat dissipation, and averaged temperature distribution

Natural free cooling design becomes possible and may replace active liquid

cooling

Based on above advantages, higher assembly efficiency create

better energy density and lower cost.
